Missing In Action

Hi lovely readers!

I have been super MIA from blogging land lately.  Mainly because I have been somewhat busy with some fun things I have on the go & secondly because I am going to be switching over Gypsy Friday to a new home! You can find me HERE at www.gypsyfriday.tumblr.com

I felt like I needed a fresh new layout and couldn't quite tweak the blogspot platform the way I wanted.  I'm not techy in the least!  So, hoping you will follow me onto new and better things!

Thank you for reading!

Dress Rundown

I'm not one to watch awards shows, but I do like to scope who wore what after the fact.

Ombre Hair?

Slow on the band wagon (I know) but I am lusting for ombre hair.  

A huge time and financial commitment when you have as many hair extensions tied into your head as I do (what a fraud!)...but passing trend or not...I am trying to justify it to myself more and more!  

Sigh.

SB by Selma Blair

I loved her in 'The Sweetest Thing' and was super pumped to hear she had a new bag collection out.

Then I was even more excited to read she was donating a proceed of each bag sold to a no kill animal shelter in LA.  A woman after my own heart!

Triple Threat

I wanted to share the Calgary Fashion banner shoot featuring one of my fav co-workers, Bronwyn M. 

Not only is she gorgeous, she's intelligent and nice. 

(ironic that I had to spell check myself the word intelligent...smh)

Looking good B!!

Good Kate, Bad Kate

Good Kate, Bad Kate by Steven Klein for W Mag

Makes me think of Madonna, Mr. Tumnus and that half horse half man guy from Hercules. 

All dear things I loved in my childhood. 

Totally what they were going for I'm sure.

S&D Arm Party

The Kardashian's have been rocking some Stella and Dot hard lately...and if you haven't checked out the new S&D S/S 2012 collection yet - click HERE and scope immediately.  

It's getting edgier and edgier with each collection with some super cute pieces calling my name.  

Like this and this and this.

Hello, arm party!?  

Grab your Festival 'Til Dawn Necklace here (which is now on sale I might add!  Cha-ching!)

You fit me better than my favourite sweater

You were full of punk rock
I grew up on hip hop

She is haunting and romantic and rocks kick ass liquid liner.

She also doesn't give a flying $@*! what anyone has to say about her.

I simply cannot get enough of Lana Del Rey.

Dressform

I have had my eye out for a dressform for quite some time.  

And although I love these ones on Etsy...I could never pay such a ridiculous amount. 

So when I stumbled upon some vintage looking ones at Home Sense, I didn't hesitate.  

It fits into our space perfectly and at $90 dollars - was a steal.

Cute, right?

...without you it's a waste of time

Gives Coldplay a run for their money.

Love.

Jean Paul Gaultier's Winehouse tribute may be in bad taste. 

Maybe. 

Visually, it is however, gorgeous.
